"Okay, I'll sign." Huang Lan had no choice and didn't expect anything to be wrong. Such a mutually beneficial restraint was really normal. After signing and drawing, Huang Lan handed the paper to Liu Min.
Liu Min glanced at it and waved his hand: "Someone, take it down."
Two soldiers immediately entered and pushed Huang Lan to the ground. Huang Lan was shocked and shouted: "Liu Min, what are you doing? Let me go. Do you dare to touch me? Do you know who I am?" ?"
"You are Huang Quan's cousin and Mrs. Huang's cousin. I know that. Originally, I didn't dare to touch you, but with this, I dare." Liu Min raised the paper in his hand.
"You turned out to be a trap." Huang Lan was startled. She still didn't understand why Liu Min and Fan Lixiang were fishing. However, she was only startled. Huang Lan recovered immediately and looked at Liu Min fiercely.
"Liu Min, do you think everything will be fine if you just hold this piece of paper? Even if you sue me, Huang Lan, my Huang family will still let you and Fan Lixiang walk around without finishing their meal.
Now the King of Shu is about to ascend the throne. Humph, if you cause such a thing at this time, even if the King of Shu handles it, he will be dissatisfied with you and Fan Lixiang. This is a case that destroys people's hearts. Do you think you have exposed me? Shu Will the king praise you and Fan Lixiang? Don't be stupid, okay?
¡°And maybe the King of Shu won¡¯t accept it at all, and you¡¯ll be the one to look after it then. "
Huang Lan has great confidence in her heart. Since ancient times, kings, when they are about to ascend the throne, have not tried their best to exaggerate and beautify themselves, making their ascension to the throne look extremely glorious.
"If Liu Zhang handled this case and implicated so many officials, then the Sichuan Army would be covered in a big black hole. No king would want to see this kind of thing.
There is at least a 50% chance that Liu Zhang will suppress the case, a 70% chance that he will handle the case secretly, and a 100% chance that Fan Lixiang will cause serious dissatisfaction to Liu Zhang.
Now Huang Lan only needs to analyze the pros and cons for Liu Min. As long as Fan Lixiang is not a fool, she will not report herself.
However, Huang Lan saw that Liu Min was completely indifferent and just looked at her with a smile. Huang Lan had a vague feeling.
"Well said, well said."
At this time, a sudden voice sounded. Huang Lan was shocked when she heard the voice. As the helmsman of the Huang family's business, Huang Lan was shocked. How could I not recognize Liu Zhang's voice?
Liu Zhang is actually here, then?
Not only Liu Zhang, but also Huang Yueying, Wang Lei and Jiang Wan. Fan Lixiang, Zhang Ren, a few people, some civil and military personnel, and more than a dozen people came out of it.
Huang Lan's face was as white as snow.
Liu Zhang looked at the civil and military officials behind him and said: "I brought you here for two purposes. First, let you see that the Han Dynasty that we are supporting has not yet taken shape, and how these rubbish are showing off their public power and seeking personal gain for themselves and the family. .second."
Liu Zhang turned to Huang Lan and said coldly: "I also want to tell you that I brought you all here, but I will not handle this matter secretly. In other words, I will make this matter public to the world. Let the people of the world see it. The ugliest side of our Sichuan Army."
The civil and military officials all looked at Liu Zhang with emotion. At first, Liu Zhang asked them, the top civil and military officials, to come here. They felt baffled. Later, when Liu Min was acting with Huang Lan outside, they knew the purpose, but they felt that it was making a fuss out of a molehill.
Now after listening to Liu Zhang¡¯s words, I know the reason why Liu Zhang did this.
To be honest, neither Huang Yueying nor Zhang Ren, as the heads of civil and military affairs, wanted to cause such a thing before Liu Zhang became emperor, but they also understood Liu Zhang's character. If Liu Zhang was a person who only cared about the overall situation, there would be no such thing. Jiangzhou Massacre.
"King of Shu, spare your life, King of Shu, please spare your life If the King of Shu must punish you, he will only offend the common people. It has nothing to do with the family. The common people are willing to die to apologize."
Huang Lan was stunned when he saw Liu Zhang coming out with all the civil and military personnel. His brain seemed to explode. When he reacted, he immediately kowtowed instinctively. But he immediately thought that Liu Zhang was coming out now, and what Liu Zhang said, it would be impossible not to kill people. It's possible.
He was certain to die, so Huang Lan immediately changed her request to kill him alone.
"Do you have the guts? Do you think your head can be saved?"
Liu Zhang finished speaking in a cold voice, waved his sleeves, and strode out angrily. Huang Lan's crime made Liu Zhang angry, and Huang Lan's last plea for mercy made Liu Zhang feel cold in his heart.
??Have you worked so hard and everything was in vain? Huang Lan is still the same as the previous children of the family. She values ??her family more than anything else and would rather die than save her family.
Just like Sima Hui, Zhuge Ci, Pang Degong and others, if you kill yourself, he will laugh and insult you. If you touch his family, you will be scared to death immediately.??soul and six souls.
This kind of family cohesion, when the family power is not strong, or it is a family of ordinary people, is not only conducive to social stability, but also conducive to national unity, and it is also a virtue.
But for those powerful families, especially families where many members are involved in officialdom, this cohesion is devastating to society.
The Huang family in Yizhou is obviously such a family.
??This is the case for Huang Lan of the Huang family, but what about the other meritorious families of the Sichuan Army?
Liu Zhang felt a chill on his back. If the Sichuan army also brought up a group of wealthy families who were desperate for the interests of the family, then he would really feel sorry for the children of the family who were slaughtered by him.
He himself has become the biggest joke of all time.
"Wang Lei, Zhang Ren, how are things going?" After Liu Zhang went out, he took a breath of fresh air and the anger in his chest calmed down a little.
Wang Lei immediately replied: "Lord, all the officials involved in embezzling the treasury have been identified. The treasury controlled by these officials has not had time to return the funds. It is easy to find out and arrest them in one fell swoop, but the number is a bit large."
Wang Lei said the last sentence slightly softly.
"Wang Lei." Liu Zhang suddenly turned around, looked at Wang Lei with sharp eyes, and said loudly: "Can you do this as a supervisor? If you can't do it, get out and replace him."
Wang Lei was startled and said quickly: "No matter how many people there are, as long as General Zhang Ren cooperates, they will all be detained."
Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. In the past, Wang Lei was very upright and even dared to contradict himself, but now he has so many scruples. Is it really because the place he manages is so big that everyone is timid?
Wang Lei is still the same Wang Lei as before. It's just the mentality of the ancients. Managing a state is different from that of a country. To manage a country, you need to know how to change things. Under this psychological trend, Wang Lei now also learns to consider "the overall situation."
By arresting so many officials before he ascended the throne, Wang Lei wanted to consider the overall situation, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to back him up all of a sudden.
Wang Lei felt a little ashamed at this time. He seemed to have really changed, if he was in Yizhou before. There was such a big case involving official Fan in the state. Even if Liu Zhang did not agree with the arrest, he would die to remonstrate with him.
But why do I have instinctive scruples now? Is it because he felt that Liu Zhang¡¯s throne should be stabilized first? Isn't this a disguised compromise? What is the difference between the so-called upright self and those scholar-bureaucrats who use all kinds of sanctimonious excuses to cover up their "forced" mistakes?
And does Liu Zhang need it?
Wang Lei only now discovered that from being based in one state to dominating the world. It seemed that everyone had changed except Liu Zhang. Wang Lei secretly warned himself that he could not make such a mistake again and wanted to find his former self who would rather die than speak his own opinion.
"Zhang Ren, cooperate with Wang Lei. Not only those officials, but also all the Huang family members involved in bribery and embezzlement, as well as other important figures, no matter who they are. All are detained.
Especially in Beiping, I know that many of the officials who managed the Beiping project were involved and all were arrested. It will definitely affect the construction progress, but you don¡¯t have to worry about it. Just do it first, or it will delay the construction period. "
"The delay in the construction period will result in loss of money. If the case is ignored, or a few people are killed without pain, once this trend becomes popular, it will be repaid in the future."
"Yes." Zhang Ren and Wang Lei took the order one after another. Huang Lan, who was kneeling on the ground in the back room, completely collapsed after hearing Liu Zhang's words. This time, the Huang family was going to be in trouble. He knew that the Huang family involved this time was really There are too many, not just businessmen, but also many officials of the Huang family are among them.
"Lord, would you like to inform Huang Quan and Mrs. Huang? According to detailed investigation, Huang Quan did not participate this time and did not know about it at all. However, the people involved include Huang Quan and Mrs. Huang's close relatives, including Mrs. Huang's father ." Huang Yueying said cautiously from the side.
"Huh~~~" Liu Zhang let out a long breath and felt a huge headache.
Huang Quan was the one who helped him first. I still remember before the Battle of Fucheng, I asked Huang Quan to integrate the Dongzhou soldiers. What a difficult task it was. At that time, the Dongzhou soldiers were unruly and their military discipline was corrupt
But Huang Quan still integrated. At the most critical moment of the Battle of Fucheng, he gave Zhao Wei a fatal blow. Later, he wanted to deprive him of his military power and return him to a civilian position, but Huang Quan said nothing.
After that, Huang Quan has been with the Sichuan Army until today. Without Huang Quan's governance, Yizhou would not be as prosperous as it is now, and it would not be possible to support the Sichuan Army in combat and provide logistical supplies for Liu Zhang's various decrees.
Huang Quan is definitely the biggest contributor in the Sichuan military civilian system.
And Huang Yue, not to mention, has been standing silently at the back, forBefore the rebellion of the Jingyi family was put down, Huang Yue suffered a lot and even had difficulty in giving birth.
But Huang Yue has always stood behind him silently, never being jealous, and managing his family affairs well so that he has no worries.
If possible, Liu Zhang really doesn¡¯t want to touch the Huang family.
However, just like killing Liu Mao and killing Fu Wan, now for the sake of the officialdom of the Sichuan Army in the future, people from the Huang family must be killed.
"Let me know."
Liu Zhang waved his hand and said, "You can't think too much about some things. If you think too much, Liu Zhang is afraid that he will be soft-hearted."
"My lord, when will you choose the day to ascend the throne?" Huang Yueying waited for Liu Zhang to take a few steps and shouted out.
The last time I discussed many matters with Liu Zhang, including the official system, the military system and various laws and regulations, the discussion in many places failed to produce results, and the two people had serious disagreements in many places. As a result, Liu Zhang left in a daze after discussing it all night.
Now this case has happened. I originally thought it was just an engineering accident, but now it involves so many people, and it has become the first major case after the resurgence of the Han Dynasty. I don¡¯t know how long it will be delayed.
But the ascension to the throne cannot be delayed. In the past, Liu Zhang refused to ascend the throne because the world was not yet unified. All the civil and military people felt that Liu Zhang was righteous. Now that they are all unified, if he still does not ascend the throne, then the country cannot live without a king for a day.
"Hold on."
Liu Zhang put down three words and left with his soldiers. Huang Yueying waved her hands, but she still felt that it was more reliable to go through the almanac first.
Fan Lixiang did not expect Liu Zhang to directly enter her barracks. This was the Shenwei Army barracks. Of course, her barracks was the closest.
There was a stove in the barracks, and Liu Zhang was sitting next to it.
"Master, won't you go back?" Fan Lixiang took off her sword and hung it on the wall, took off her armor, and asked Liu Zhang with a smile.
"I won't go back for the time being. When I go back, Yueying will definitely discuss the enthronement with me. I'm not in the mood now." Liu Zhang really doesn't want to discuss it now.
"But this is a matter of time. Besides, I am also waiting for my lord to ascend the throne. I also want to be the general of Zhuguo." Fan Lixiang walked to Liu Zhang and sat down, and put her hands around Liu Zhang's neck. Liu Zhang only felt a tremor on his back. Kind of compressed softness.
Liu Zhang hugged him sideways, and Fan Lixiang sat sideways on Liu Zhang's lap.
"I'll stay with you for a while and then go back. I just want to clear my head. Little goblin, please don't cause any trouble for me."
Liu Zhang held Fan Lixiang's slender waist and felt the curve of Fan Lixiang's waist. Fan Lixiang leaned on Liu Zhang and suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, if we just make Peking the capital, it would be really simple.
"The Lord is going to execute the officials and the Huang family members who committed the crime this time. Such a big event is a warning for future generations. No matter how big the family members of officials are, no matter how many merits they have, they cannot act recklessly.
To achieve the purpose of vigilance, we must invite all the ministers from Chang'an to Peiping. Let's watch these people be executed together. After they come, there is no need to leave. "
"You don't have to go, are you kidnapping?" The stove was emitting firelight and heat, and Liu Zhang suddenly relaxed a lot when he was touched by Fan Lixiang's hot body, and he couldn't help but move his hand along the exquisite curves.
Just when she was about to touch the plump lower part, Fan Lixiang let out a soft sigh and gently opened Liu Zhang's hand.
"As long as those civil and military officials are here, the rest will be much easier to handle. Isn't my lord the reincarnation of the Red Emperor? I think it's impossible not to have a strange phenomenon when he ascends the throne? If it happens in Peking Well, you, Be gentler" Unconsciously, Liu Zhang's hand slipped up again.
Liu Zhang instantly understood what Fan Lixiang meant. This was about engaging in feudal superstition. He had not thought about this before he ascended the throne, so it was dispensable.
"However, if there are many strange phenomena in Peiping, such as the emperor's aura and fortune descending from the sky, then it would be more reasonable to make Peiping the capital. This move is really good.
Liu Zhang touched Fan Lixiang's chest, making Fan Lixiang twist uncomfortably in his arms, and said: "Okay, let's do it this way. Some people are opposed to it anyway. This is the maximum I can do. .¡±
